FO flying the aircraft?

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I am not sure if I am mixing things up with something else, but for some reason I believe, that in some MCE file I was reading that you can handle the flying to FO. Phrases sit in my head like "you have controls" or "you fly the aircraft". 

I scrolled through all command files and associated PMDG 737 NGX files (I fly mostly it now in P3D4), but can't find it anymore. Only that you can handle the radios to him.

So is this my imagination because I've seen it somewhere else or MCE has such a function? If so could someone please remind me in which file I could read about that?

 

Regards, 

Viktor.

Only possible in MSFS 🙂

Hi Gerald,

 

Thanks for a quick reply! Now I remember where did my memories came from. It was possible with CRJ in MSFS and it's describe in the file using MCE with MSFS. Later on my MSFS required 16 GB update which I was not able to complete at the time and switch back to P3D. 

However, now wandering what is the difference that only MSFS has such a functionality? 

Would you consider to add this to P3D also? That would be cool. Sometimes I like to switch the view to FO and do radio handling by my self. But since another pilot cannot fly the airplane, sometimes it becomes too overloaded to handle the radios and piloting NGX, despite the fact, that the more I study MCE, for more comfortable I feel flying 😊

 

Regards,

Viktor.

that would be Sacré bleu ....... buy yourself a descent ATC addon & stop swapping seats.

I remain aghast that it's possible for sofa simmers.

 

for now, cheers

I am on PF3, which works pretty well with MCE and if there's a problem, the support is instant from Gerald and Dave on PF3 forum. 

So for me it's pretty decent. What ever you feel about us, "simmer", doesn't really change the way we enjoy simulation 😉
